*** OFFICIAL PokerStars MTTSNG Suggestion Thread ***

[CashW]

Thanks for the 11 non-turbo, appreciated and they run fairly well with the "NEW" tag so it's cool. Maybe this as been adressed but no plan to put it on MTT lobby ?

[mckrogh]

Please look at payoutstructures for all mttsngs!

It's only on peak hours.

Stars response:

We are currently trialling a limited number of Sit & Gos that run
only during peak hours. Removing them from the lobby during
off-peak hours avoids the problem of players signing up for Sit &
Gos that don't run and reduces clutter in the lobby. This new
concept of peak-hours-only Sit & Gos allows us to offer Sit & Gos
that require a high level of liquidity, which we would not have
offered in the past due to concerns about the tournament not
running for most of the day.

For example:

Cool threads. PokerStars do listen to their players a lot. Proof is here. This is exactly how it is in the SNG Lobby for this tnry. Have not tried the new 11 -180man yet but will today!

15th-18th= $120
12th-15th= $140
10th-12th= $160
9th= $200
8th= $250
7th= $350
6th= $475
5th= $625
4th= $800
3rd= $1100
2nd= $1825
1st= $2800

And obviously do equivalent %'s for all other buy-ins. Would make reg's ICM mistakes even more catastrophic than they already are and ROI's would increase for everyone, especially fish.

I like the idea of slight increments for 10th-12th and 13th-15th, but Steve's numbers add up to $9,945 whereas yours only add up to $9,685, a $260 difference. But I like Steve's idea of three grand for first, exactly fifty times the buyin.

I'd suggest:

1st		$ 3,000
2nd		$ 1,900
3rd		$ 1,175
4th		$ 800
5th		$ 600
6th		$ 450
7th		$ 335
8th		$ 255
9th		$ 200
10th-12th		$ 155
13th-15th		$ 135
16th-18th		$ 120

Would also like to see adjustments made to 10th-12th and 13th-15th in other buyins too.

For smaller buyins, the first prize adjustments should also be to exactly 50x buyin imo.

Yeh it's where I counted 12th and 15th twice

But yeh add that surplus to 1st and you've got nigh on $3k anyway. Both similar set ups, wouldn't mind your's or mine.

What has annoyed me though is the fact they're responding to every single hyper STT demand but despite the massive demand in here for a $8-$10 180 rebuy they're still refusing to budge. Wouldn't call it justice myself.

[ChAAnt JC]

+1 It'd be good to have a post where Stars went through and responded to the many good ideas/suggestions ITT. So much stuff just getting ignored. I find it pretty frustrating and can't be the only one.

[SngNit]

They have responded about the 180r a few times in here. It's just that response is baloney. Liquidity would NOT be hugely effected imo and the same rake can be charged to make up for any loss on the $35 bi side.

[ChAAnt JC]

Yeah, agreed. The higher rebuy question hasn't really been answered. I'm sure they have their reasons, but 180s are tougher than ever at the moment with entire tables full of regs at times and it seems to me that splitting the player pool mightn't be such a bad thing.

There were also many other requests ITT which haven't been acknowledged like the make a deal button for ft's, automated initial rebuys and lots of others I can't remember at the moment!

[Matt1712]

Hello,

Is it possible to add the "final table background" to 18man sngs ? It would be helpfull when multitabling imo.

[PS Walmsley]

The attached screenshot shows the current sidebar view when you click on an MTT-SNG in the main lobby. Instead of this, we are considering showing the list of registering players for SNG up to 27 players.

For 45 players and above we would still like to show something more useful than the present information. So opinions welcome. What would you like to see in this space for SNG with 45 players or more?

Yes yes yes please do this.

For 45+ SNGs, would there be anyway of having a list of players but with a scroll button?

Or something like this would be sick:

162/180 players registered

8 colour coded orange
14 colour coded red
10 colour coded green
130 not colour coded

[JACKTEN]

+1 to adding list of players with a scroll bar in 45s pls
